We are particularly grateful to Haynes International for allowing us access to historical documents, photographs, and other articles that have managed to survive over the years. Much of what we have written comes from Ralph D. Gray’s excellent book “STELLITE – A History of the Haynes Stellite Company 1912 – 1972”. This book was the source for many of the facts and stories we used in this short history. Many thanks to Michael F. Rothman for his written contributions to this book, and for the final editing of the manuscript. Edmond J. Bickel Dr. F. Galen Hodge Dale A. Kingseed Dr. Dwaine L. Klarstrom Charles J. Sponaugle July, 2012 ©2012 Haynes International, Inc. - 1 - HAYNES INTERNATIONAL The Last 100 Years INTRODUCTION Haynes International celebrates the 100th anniversary of its founding in October, 2012. Begun by Elwood Haynes, the company traces its origins back to a day in September, 1912 when Haynes learned that he would be granted patents for two of his special alloy inventions. He immediately purchased property and constructed a building to house melting furnaces for commercially producing the material he called STELLITE® alloy. By October, 1912 the “Haynes Stellite Works” was in business, with production actually underway by December. The company began with just four workers, consisting of Haynes, his wife, his brother- in-law, and his 16 year old son March. March worked evenings and Saturdays as a grinder.

  • HAYNES® 617 Alloy
    HAYNES® 617 alloy Principal Features HAYNES® 617 alloy (UNS N06617) is a nickel-chromium-cobalt-molybdenum alloy with a good combination of metallurgical stability, strength, and oxidation resistance at high tem- peratures. The alloy is readily formed and welded by conventional techniques. HAYNES® 617 alloy is use in applications such as gas turbines for combustion cans, ducting, and transition lines. For modern application, HAYNES® 230® alloy should be considered as a replacement. Nominal Composition Weight % Nickel: Balance Cobalt: 12.5 Chromium: 22 Molybdenum: 9 Manganese: 0.2 max.

  • HAYNES® 625 Alloy
    HAYNES® 625 alloy Principal Features Excellent Strength Up To 1500°F (816°C), Good Oxidation Resistance, and Good Resistance to Aqueous Corrosion HAYNES® 625 alloy (UNS N06625) is a nickel- chromium-molybdenum alloy with excellent strength from room temperature up to about 1500°F (816°C). At higher temperatures, its strength is generally lower than that of other solid-solution strengthened alloys. Alloy 625 has good oxidation resistance at temperatures up to 1800°F (982°C) and provides good resistance to aqueous corrosion, but generally not as effectively as modern HASTELLOY® corrosion-resistant alloys. Easily Fabricated HAYNES® 625 alloy has excellent forming and welding characteristics. It may be forged or otherwise hot-worked providing temperature is maintained in the range of about 1800 to 2150°F (982 to 1177°C). Ideally, to control grain size, finish hot working operations should be performed at the lower end of the temperature range. Because of its good ductility, al- loy 625 is also readily formed by cold working. However, the alloy does work-harden rap- idly so intermediate annealing treatments may be needed for complex component forming operations. In order to restore the best balance of properties, all hot- or cold-worked parts should be annealed and rapidly cooled. The alloy can be welded by both manual and automatic welding methods, including gas tungsten arc (GTAW), gas metal arc (GMAW), electron beam, and resistance welding. It exhibits good restraint welding characteristics. Heat Treatment Unless otherwise specified, wrought HAYNES® 625 alloy is normally supplied in the mill-annealed condition. The alloy is usually mill-annealed at 1925°F plus or minus 25°F (1052°C plus or minus 14°C) for a time commensurate with section thickness and rapidly cooled or water-quenched for optimum properties.

  • INCONEL® Alloy 22 (UNS N06022; W
    www.specialmetals.com INCONEL® alloy 22 (UNS N06022; W. Nr. 2.4602; NiCr21Mo14W) is a fully austenitic advanced corrosion-resistant alloy that offers resistance to both aqueous corrosion and attack at elevated temperatures. This alloy provides exceptional resistance to general corrosion, pitting, crevice corrosion, intergranular attack, and stress corrosion cracking. Alloy 22 has found numerous applications in the chemical/petrochemical processing, pollution control (flue gas desulfurization), power, marine, pulp and paper processing, and waste disposal industries. Alloy 22 is nickel-base and typically contains 22% chromium, 14% molybdenum, and 3% tungsten. Iron is normally limited to less than 3%. The alloy’s high content of chromium gives it good resistance to wet corrosion by oxidizing media (e.g., nitric acid and ferric and cupric salts). Its contents of molybdenum and tungsten give the alloy resistance to wet reducing media (e.g., sulfuric and hydrochloric acids). Alloy 22 exhibits excellent resistance to corrosive attack by seawater under stagnant and flowing conditions. At elevated temperatures, the high chromium level of INCONEL alloy 22 helps it resist oxidation, carburization, and sulfidation. Since it is nickel-base, alloy 22 resists high temperature attack by halides (e.g., chlorides and fluorides). With these attributes, the alloy is widely used to protect steel tubes and other components in coal-fired and waste-to-energy boilers.

These alloys may be considered for a wide variety of applications where one or more of the following properties are important: 1. Resistance to corrosion 2. Prevention of product contamination 3. Resistance to oxidation 4. Ease of fabrication 5. Excellent formability 6. Beauty of appearance 7. Ease of cleaning 8. High strength with low weight 9. Good strength and toughness at cryogenic temperatures 10. Ready availability of a wide range of product forms Each alloy represents an excellent combination of corrosion resistance and fabricability. This combination of properties is the reason for the extensive use of these alloys which represent nearly one half of the total U.S. stainless steel production. ATI 304 alloy represents the largest volume followed by ATI 304L alloy. ATI 302 and ATI 305 alloys are used in smaller quantities. The 18-8 stainless steels, principally ATI 304 and 304L alloys, are available in a wide range of product forms including sheet, strip, foil and plate from ATI. The alloys are covered by a variety of specifications and codes relating to, or regulating, construction or use of equipment manufactured from these alloys for specific conditions. Food and beverage, sanitary, cryogenic, and pressure-containing applications are examples.
